Is JavaScript plus static type checking and a few other syntax enhancements. It is much easier to maintain software with static type checking. The typescript compiler outputs JavaScript

Sounds like you’ve been in crypto communities way more than me (which is 0) lol

What? I am basically the opposite of a crypto bro. The term “FUD” has been around a long time https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty,_and_doubt

Sometimes it feels like a portion of the community views complexity as a badge of honour

Adding GUI tools adds complexity

The next hype lined up is quantum

Low code AI will reduce programming jobs a lot, it’s madness to deny it.

Unless they absolutely guarantee feature-parity with the existing C-based utils

Is there any reason to think they won’t?

Debian is really losing the plot IMO. Glad I switched to Devuan some time ago.

Aren’t you just an anti-wayland anti-systemd weirdo? Not that there is anything wrong with using what you want, but pretending they aren’t much needed improvements in the long run is ridiculous

Unfortunately a lot of people are trying to outsource code review to LLMs as well. Also, LLM generated code is more likely to have subtle errors that a human would be very unlikely to make in otherwise mundane code. Errors that are easy to gloss over if you don’t take a magnifying glass to it. My current least favorite thing is LLM generated unit tests that don’t actually test what they say they do.

Obvious answer is to be more like a normal book

The company says this is because it’s shifting its AOSP reference target from Pixel hardware to a virtual device called “Cuttlefish” to be more neutral.

This actually probably make sense, but they could still be cool and have pixel drivers be open source in a different repo if that was the only reason.
